Statement

The resistance data are generated via a multichannel electrical resistivity instrument known as PRIME (PRoactive Infrastructure Monitoring and Evaluation system). Measurements provided are raw measurements only (barring any internal filtering by PRIME). The sensors for the PRIME instrument (electrodes) are in boreholes. The coordinates of the electrodes are also provided with reference to a local and national (OSGB36) coordinate system. The elevations of the electrodes are given with reference to OSGB36 datum, hence although all electrodes are below the ground surface some occupy positive elevation values. The accompanying mesh (for data processing) was generated via the Gmsh software using the known electrode positions and known elevation of the ground surface (at ~20m).
